Japanese Street Food - $100 GIANT CLAM Seafood Japan

[@Hobbit183]

caketropolis ye like clam down its just a calm

[@caketropolis]

Datgai Yong there is plenty of seafood eaten there as well. As for the raw vs cooked, that's just regional preference. Also British cuisine is highly influenced by other parts of Europe and places they've colonized or traveled through which is shown by their love and use of spices and meat dishes

[@wyvernbravo]

I think the best thing about eating giant clams/muscles Is your meal comes included with a plate

[@JM-hm3pj]

Being born and raised in the west in often find it fascinating eating habits of our eastern neighbors. My girlfriend is from Vietnam, as a result I've been eating Asian food that I would've never thought I'd enjoy. I never thought I'd enjoy seaweed as much as I do. Honestly, it made me realize how much healthier Asian food appears to be. Although I love big fat burgers and authentic Latin American food, I can't help but to also crave Asian foods I can't even pronounce properly.

I was raised in the northeast of the US and have been eating raw clams and oysters all my life. Rather popular there. Raw seafood is not just a Japanese thing, although nobody does it better than they do.

[@funkiebutch9690]

I think people who think that way never live near sea. I'm not in Japan but I eat seafood all my life. I think it's common thing since it's easier to get clamps and seafood compare to poultry meat.

[@goodolrainbowpet]

my dad always talked about how he ate raw clams growing up... but we live in Pennsylvania which is too much mountain for clams but we eat a lot of fish like bass and trout (i think)... though we dont eat as much fish anymore because its hard for him to go out to find a fishing spot

Clams are excellent filter feeders. They draw water into their bodies, filter out microscopic particles, algae, and organic matter, and release clean water back into the environment. This process helps to maintain water clarity, remove excess nutrients, and improve water quality.

[@DevMarco-]

Sadly that also means they probably consume much micro plastic these days :/

[@kmbrlyj7051]

Before the pandemic, I wouldn’t say that most Japanese restaurants use gloves. I’ll admit their hand washing technique even before Covid goes way beyond what you’d see in other countries, though.

[@kyleorigliosso2276]

Rigor and discipline with hand washing is much better than gloves any day. Gloves breed complacency, often being worn for multiple tasks, which is much riskier than often washed bare hands.

Gloves do not make things more hygienic. Washing hands frequently is safe.
